The Two Houses i'm Indiana Look at the
SenatOrship Question From Difrere mt
Points of View.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Feb. 2c.-Thc Demo-
cratic members of the Senate yesterday
afternoon passed a resolution reciting tae
story of the fight over the Lieutenant Gov
ernorship from their standpoint. denying
the legality of the alleged Joint convention
in which the vote for Lieutenant Governor
was canvassed and certified, relating to the
bringing of the suit for an injunction
against Robertson, its issuance by
Judge Ayres and the final action of
the Supreme Court. and closing by express
ing a desire to submit the matter to the
judges of the court for arbitration. The
Republican members were present, but
persisted in their policy Of refusing to vote
and declining to recognize Senator Smith
Us the legal presiding officer. The House
still refuses to recognize the legality of the
Senate's organization, and there is no Off
cial intercourse between the two branches.

PITTSBURGH, Pa, Fec. 26.-The iroa work
ers' strike at Mngo junction has resulted
in e declaration of war between the Anal
garoated Association and Knights of Labor,
which may spread throughout the entire
country. The trouble was caused by con.
fiict of authority, both associations want

promise have failed, and open warfare has
been inaugurated. W. II. Bailey of the

threatens to fill the mill with men from
other places, while the Amalgamated OFF

to keep outsiders from going to work.

FAvORS HIGH LICENSE.

Governor f. A. Stevenson has the fol.
lowing to say about licenses and saloons,
in his biennial message to the Legislature
OF Idaho: 1.-THE necessities Of the Ter.
ritory require revenue to meet its cur
rent expenses. and the best source to
secure such revenue is in part from an
increase in many Of the licenses which,
by existing laws are not well graded,
and in many instances the license levied
is entirely too small. The license on
liquor dealers and saloons should be ma.
terially increased. There is a demand
for alcoholic liquors which will be sup.
piled, but it is a luxury and not neces-
sary for any persons existence or main
tenance, consequently those who use il
should be required to pay for it and the
many evil consequences ~emanating from
its injudicious use. It has become a
common complaint that saloons have be-
come to some degree. a center for existing
vicious political influences, and to miti.
gate these abuses is one of your most i'm.
portant duties"

CLERICAL ~smMOnAI.IrY.

The New York Sun says everybody
must have been struck by the frequency
OF cases Of clerical immortality within re-
cent years. They have occurred in sew
eral parts Of the Union, and among the
ministers of nearly every denomination,
the number reported in New York news
papers comprising only a portion of the
whole, as any one who keeps the run Of
American journals a testify.
There seems to be no doubt that there
has been a decided increase in such mis-
conduct, and it has taken place during
the last ten years. We observe, too,
that there is a very remarkable similarity
between the cases, more especially so far
as concerns the behavior of the clergy
men under the disgraceful charges made
against them.
The accusation, almost invariably, is
of undue familiarity with the wife Of a
p~arishioner, or of attempts at her cor.
ruption. That is a terrible charge to
bring against a minister Of the gospel.
whose usefulness and fitness for his holy
functions depend upon his reputation for
purity of character and fidelity in his
W life to the standard Of conduct he
holds up for others. Yet we do not
remember q single one of the most scan
dalous cases where the accused clergy.
man has insisted upon a satisfactory
vindication. He has either allowed the
public to remain in doubt as to his guilt,
or has undertaken to brow.beat his &C.
cusers, and meantime and afterward has
gone on in the exercise Of his sacred
profession as if the charge were of minor
consequence.
What does all that mean: 1t means
that Henry Ward Beecher set profigate
and licentious ministers an example
which they have been quick to follow.
They saw that he was able to brazen it
out when proof Of gross immortality was
UfouSuk against Aiiu, duu W Keep UH as
a preacher Of the gospel, and they were
emboldened to indulge in like practices,
expecting to have equal success in stand.
ing out against the truth. They learned
from him the tactics they have used, and
the e~ffrontery under such accusations
displayed by them is copied from the de.
PRAYED Brooklyn pastor. A charge Of
immortality, they have found, can be so
treated as to become of positive ad.
vantage to q thick-skinned and un-
scrupulous minister. by giving him wei.
come notoriety; and Mr.. Beecher's sue
cess has, Of course, encouraged the en-
trance of such characters into the sacred
profession.
The consequences of that UNPUBLISHED
crime against religion are not yet all ap.
